In an emotional post on Facebook, a mother named Lauren Russell explained how she witnessed her son, Noah Gilbert, being attacked for his hair color. They had both boarded a bus when teenagers began making fun of the boy's ginger hair.

The school teens made a lot of comments about the child's hair including 'I would hate my child to be ginger, I would kill it' and 'All kids with ginger hair should go straight to social services'.

Even though he was only three, Noah felt hurt and uncomfortable with the comments. He later opened up to his mother and wanted to know why people did not like his hair color. He also said he wished he had blonde hair like his sibling.

He hasn't stopped asking me why people don't like his hair. He asked me if I could change it for him so people will like it. I can feel my heart breaking every time he asks me.
